The night wind passes through the stone forest in the back mountain, and blows into the living room that leads directly to the small courtyard.

The girls had just soaked in the hot springs, and the accumulated heat was not only not cold, but rather comfortable when blown by the wind.

The Japanese-style barbecue for tonight's dinner, there are several pieces of charcoal that the staff have just made in the black charcoal stove, and the red flame is burning, making a crackling sound.

Song Ran was fiddling with the marinated meat, while Yu Sheng skillfully put the meat she prepared on the grill on the stove.

Lu Ming, a person who is used to doing things, was rushed to the side by these two people to pour juice for the purpose of repaying Lu Ming for inviting them to come here to enjoy the top hot spring.

Lu Ming poured three glasses of fruit juice, and put the washed fruit on the round table beside him. He sat on the side and looked at the two people who were steadily getting ready to start the barbecue, and touched the phone.

She thought it would be better to take this opportunity to thank Xi Wang for the arrangement for the three of them today, and by the way, share with Xi Wang about today's hot spring trip.

Lu Ming pondered for a while, and said: [Thank you, Aunt Xi, the hot spring is very comfortable. 】

Lu Ming knew that Xi Wang was very busy, so he would reply to his message soon.

She looked at the chat window where she and Xi Wang were very indifferent, and she had no hope that Xi Wang could reply to her within 5 minutes.

As a result, just when Lu Ming wanted to exit the window to watch some videos, Xi Wang replied, [Going back to the room now? 】

Lu Ming's eyes lit up, and he was very pleasantly surprised, 【Yeah! 】

After hesitating for a while, Lu Ming typed another string of words: [I also took a lot of beautiful photos, do you want to see them? 】

【it is good. 】

The word was answered quickly and quickly, as if the opposite Xi Wang agreed without thinking.

Lu Ming couldn't help but "ahhh" a few times, she was very happy with Xi Wang's interest and her experience today.

Lu Ming carefully selected a lot of photos in his full album, some on the train, some on the way to Nanshan District, and a group photo of the three of them just soaking in the hot springs.

Xi Wang looked at the constantly updated photos in the chat box between himself and Lu Ming, and patiently turned to the top.

Many of them were taken by young girls. The boring green color and unprofessional photography skills are not pleasing to the eye, but Xi Wang still looked at them one by one and did not quit.

Until she saw those photos in the hot spring, the speed of her finger sliding became slower.

Because of the hot springs, everyone put their hair on top of their heads. Lu Ming had two locks of uncombed hair hanging from his temples. The steam and wind made her bangs part into a character splayed, and they were thinly pasted on her forehead. Her entire delicate face was exposed, which stood out in the whole group photo.

Xi Wang tapped the keyboard lightly, and said: 【Very beautiful. 】

Lu Ming only thought that Xi Wang was praising his good-looking photos, so he sent her an emoticon package with great satisfaction and pride.

A round and cute little penguin jumped out from Xi Wang's phone screen, with a Japanese word floating above it.

Xi Wang was taken aback for a moment, she knew that this Japanese word meant "hey".

Is the child acting like a spoiled child to her?

Xi Wang looked at the round little penguin under Lu Ming's name, and the softest part of his heart was poked.

Sour and numb, with a hint of sweetness.

After Lu Ming crossed his legs, he secretly took a photo of the scene and sent it to Xi Wang, saying: [We are going to eat barbecue! 】

Xi Wang glanced at the photo, and said: [Do you bake it yourself? 】

Lu Ming: [Well, Yu Sheng knows how to bake, and Song Ran is helping her. 】

Xi Wang looked at the word "Yu Sheng", frowned slightly, and warned: [Stay away from the stove. 】

Lu Ming said "hmm" twice, and said: [We are all far away from the stove, and we don't know how to fight. 】

Xi Wang was always reassured by Lu Ming, so he typed a word for her: 【Yes. 】

It was also because of this word that the chat interface between the two became cold.

Lu Ming stared at Xi Wang's name, she seemed to have shared today's events with Xi Wang, and now she didn't know what to say.

At this time, the time on the phone changed from 18:08 to 18:30, and Lu Ming realized that she had been chatting with Xi Wang for so long.

This was the longest time she had chatted with Xi Wang, it lasted less than half an hour.

Lu Ming is sensible and feels that he should not bother Xi any more. At this point, she is very tired from work and eating, and she should take a rest.

Lu Ming: [Aunt Xi, please rest, I won't bother you anymore. 】

At this time, Xi Wang, who had been staring at the screen, looked at the message from the little girl and frowned.

She didn't feel disturbed, and even felt a sense of loss after reading this sentence.

At this time, Lu Ming's next message was also sent: [Bye. 】

Xi Wang hesitated.

Should she continue chatting with this child for a while? This kind of chatting feels pretty good.

Xi Wang's fingers landed on the keyboard on the screen, and he didn't type a word for a long time.

That's it.

She is also not a person who is good at chatting with others.

After a while, Lu Ming's cell phone turned on, [Aunt Xi: Bye. 】

Lu Ming's eyes were slightly downcast as expected.

Sure enough, she was very busy, and she said not to disturb, but it took a while for her to see her message.

In the early morning of the next day, Song Ran took Lu Ming and Yu Sheng for a stroll around the hot spring village on a whim.

The hot spring village is located in a developed mountain forest. In the quiet and dense forest in the early morning, there will occasionally be a few bird calls, which are different from the sparrows heard in the city. The sound is particularly crisp and ethereal.

The three of them wandered around and came to a place similar to a souvenir street.In the early morning light, the stalls here have not yet opened, only an old lady sitting quietly in front of a simple stall.Compared to the surrounding shops with door hangings, she doesn't look like a businessman.

Song Ran was particularly interested in the rope that the old woman was playing with, so she squatted beside her and asked, "Old woman, are you weaving a bracelet?"

The old lady smiled kindly, and said: "Yes, if the little girl likes it, she can buy one and give it to someone she likes. You can bring it yourself."

Yu Sheng heard the old woman say this, squatted beside her thoughtfully, and asked, "Can I learn it? I think it's more meaningful to make it up this way."

After speaking, Lu Ming also looked at the old woman.

She also wanted to learn how to weave rope, and then she would weave one herself and give it to Xi Wang.

The old lady nodded without thinking, and took out a QR code from her pocket: "Yes, buy a pack of rope and teach for free."

Lu Ming looked at the somewhat old QR code, and felt that the old woman looked like a businessman now.

When Lu Ming was thinking about bargaining, Song Ran took out 50 yuan from his pocket, and said boldly, "Then I'll buy ten packs."

Lu Ming's eyelids twitched, she forgot that the sister next to her was a Neptune.

Song Ran chose a braided rope with a medium degree of difficulty but a beautiful weave.

There are six steps in one set, and the folding sets are constantly changing, and so on.

The three little girls sat on the stone rock beside them, and under the command of the old woman, they wrote carefully.

It's just repeated several times. When Lu Ming looped the rope over and over again, he couldn't get it right, crooked like a centipede.

Yu Sheng was a fast learner and a fast writer. When she saw Lu Ming frowned, she immediately said, "Look at me."

After all, she showed the correct weaving method in front of Lu Ming.

Lu Ming's eyes followed Yu Sheng's specially slowed down movements, and his hands also followed suit.

It's just, it's still not enough...

Lu Ming was a little depressed.

In the past, it took me a long time to learn how to carve rabbits and apples. Why is it so difficult to weave ropes now?

On the contrary, the more you want to do well, the less you can do it.

She hadn't experienced such a strenuous feeling for a long time.

Suddenly, Lu Ming felt a force covering the back of his hand, and Yu Sheng stretched out his hand to help him correct his technique.

Yu Sheng's hand was warm, with a bit of damp sweat accumulated from holding the rope just now.

For some reason, Lu Ming thought of Xi Wang.

Xi Wang's hands have never been like this, her hands are always cool, and when they cover her skin just right, it makes people feel very reassuring.

Yu Sheng taught meticulously, and Lu Ming finally learned his hand after trying several times in a row.

But Yu Sheng's hand never let go.

Lu Ming felt a little embarrassed, so he waved his hand and said, "I can try it myself, thank you, Yu Sheng."

"Oh, good." Yu Sheng withdrew his hand in embarrassment.

She wanted to say something more, but Song Ran wailed over there: "Ah! Yu Sheng, help me! Help!"

After hearing this, Yu Sheng glanced at Lu Ming again.

She taught very well, so Lu Ming learned it thoroughly this time, and he couldn't keep it anymore.

Yu Sheng felt a little regretful, but he had no choice but to go and help Song Ran.

The hot spring trip of the three little girls ended with rope weaving and drew a perfect ending.

Lu Ming looked at the dark green rope that he had woven the best and only one on the train.

The white beads are hanging on both ends, hanging on Xi Wang's wrist, they will occasionally collide with each other to make a small and light sound, every sound can make Xi Wang think of himself.

Thinking of this, the corners of Lu Ming's mouth slightly raised.

Until she got off the car, her eyes were full of small thoughts that couldn't be hidden.

"Lu Ming."

At this time, Yu Sheng who was beside her called her.

Lu Ming: "Huh?"

"For you." Yu Sheng said and handed a moon white rope to Lu Ming.

Lu Ming had seen this rope before, and the last stitch that Yu Sheng made was also the slowest one.

She looked back at Yu Sheng several times, and saw her fiddling with the rope, frowning as if she was not satisfied with anything.

Lu Ming didn't care if the rope was really bad. There was no reason not to accept the gift from a friend, so he happily took it over, "Thank you!"

"Where's mine!" Song Ran Xiangyu Sheng begged at the side.

Yu Sheng took out a scarlet rope, put it in Song Ran's hand, and said, "This is yours."

"That's about the same." Song Ran smiled and took the rope to his wrist.

Seeing this, Lu Ming also unpacked the package and put the rope on his hands. The three little girls in a group braided ropes on their wrists, looking very intimate.

Yu Sheng looked at the braided rope on Lu Ming's wrist, and invited, "Would you like to come to my house to play later? My house is very close to here."

Lu Ming was a little hesitant, and she was also a little unfinished, but...

Thinking of this, Lu Ming grasped the braided rope in his pocket.

She really wanted to go home quickly and forget this to Xi.

At this moment, Lu Ming, who came out of the platform, saw a very familiar figure standing far away from the crowd.

Xi Wang was standing in a distance from the crowd wearing a Donna Karan dress. The black dress was cold and white, and it stood out even from the bustling crowd.

Lu Ming smiled brightly and said, "No, she's here to pick me up."

It was her, not Aunt Xi.
